Technology has now reached a level of sophistication that previously untreatable symptoms of some motor disorders can be effectively treated. Using wireless sensor technology for measurement and treatment, disabling conditions of tremor and gait failure are now being effectively managed in our laboratory. This methodology is the first ever used to directly guide the treatment of movement disorders.
